Let $\rho (r) = \frac{Q}{\pi R^4} r$ be the charge density distribution for a solid sphere of radius $R$ and total charge $Q$. For a point $p$ inside the sphere at distance $r_1$ from the centre of the sphere,the magnitude of the electric field is:

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $\frac{Q}{4\pi \varepsilon_0 r_1^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{Q r_1^2}{4\pi \varepsilon_0 R^4}$
  • D
    $\frac{Q r_1^2}{4\pi \varepsilon_0 R^4}$

Consider a long uniformly charged cylinder having constant volume charge density $\rho$ and radius $R$. $A$ Gaussian surface is in the form of a cylinder of radius $r$ such that the vertical axis of both cylinders coincide. For a point inside the cylinder $(r < R)$,the electric field is directly proportional to

Let there be a spherically symmetric charge distribution with charge density varying as $\rho (r) = \rho _0 \left( \frac{5}{4} - \frac{r}{R} \right)$ for $r \le R$,and $\rho (r) = 0$ for $r > R$,where $r$ is the distance from the origin. The electric field at a distance $r (r < R)$ from the origin is given by:
